SPECIAL Events & SPORTING EVENTS
Music often plays a unique role at special events, either as a soundtrack to a performance or production or as the backdrop for dancing, mingling and creating the right atmosphere.
If you intend to use recorded music at a special event or sporting event, you need the permission of the owners of the music you use. You can obtain this permission by applying for a Special Events Licence or a Sporting Event Licence.
This licence applies for both ticketed events and events that are invitation-only, with no admission fee.
| Special Event – Ticketed | 1.65% of Gross Sums Paid for Admission x Music Use Percentage, subject to a minimum fee of $75.00 +GST |
| Special Event – No Admission Fee | 2% of Gross Expenditure on Performers at the Event, subject to a minimum fee of $75.00 +GST |
| Sporting Event | 0.04 cents per person admitted to each day at each event |
